2025-011 Unemployment Insurance - Assistance Listing No. 17.225 Recommendation: We recommend the Department complete implementation of its corrective action plan from the prior year. We recommend the Department review and enhance procedures and controls to ensure that BAM case investigations are completed timely in accordance with the time limits established in the ET Handbook No. 395. Action taken in response to finding: BAM staff have begun utilizing a new case management system within the modernized EMT system. This has reduced the number of screen shots necessary to develop a case. BAM investigators will continue receiving training on system usage and how to optimize day to day operations through weekly training sessions and the ability to schedule one on one training sessions with the BAM supervisor each week. BAM management continues to work with the EMT project to submit tickets for BAM program remediation while it continues to wait on required programming from pre-go live. Two BAM Investigators are training while waiting for the additional hiring to be approved. An improvement in the system is that BAM management is now in control of the number of cases being sampled. This will allow modification of the weekly sampling to allow change when needed such as an increase in case sampling if a case had to be discarded.

2025-003 Employment Service Cluster - Assistance Listing No. 17.207, 17.801 Recommendation: We recommend the Department complete implementation of its corrective action plan from the prior year. The Department should implement procedures and internal controls to ensure that all required subawards and subaward modifications are reported no later than the end of the month following the month of issuance. Action taken in response to finding: Reporting under FFATA is triggered when the department and the local areas agree on budgets — i.e., at the point when the state forms an official obligation amount. This change is meant to more closely align with FFATA guidance which specifies that “you must report each obligating action … no later than the end of the month following the month in which the obligation was made.” U.S. Election Assistance Commission. Importantly, the guidance states: “Only report on subaward obligations. Do not report individual payments made to subrecipients.” Previously, FFATA was triggered when an encumbrance was recorded. By aligning FFATA reporting with the point at which the state formally obligates funds through approved local budgets, rather than when encumbrances are recorded, the process more accurately reflects the definition of an obligating action and strengthens overall compliance with FFATA requirements. Ongoing monitoring will continue to ensure reporting remains timely and accurate, with periodic reviews conducted to assess performance and identify any needed updates to the SOP. These revisions were fully implemented by 09/30/2025. New internal controls and procedures were established 9/30/2025, in which this audit has not reviewed yet. Name(s) of the contact person(s) responsible for corrective action: Finance: Sarah Shannon, Sam Potel Planned completion date for corrective action plan: Already completed – staff trained and provided with new SOP on 9/30/2025.

2025-002 Child Nutrition Cluster - Assistance Listing No. 10.555, 10.582 Recommendation: We recommend the Department develop procedures and internal controls to ensure that all required subawards are reported timely and accurately to SAM.gov no later than the end of the month following the month of issuance of each subaward. If the Department is unable to complete reporting in SAM.gov, it should follow up with the Service Desk and consult with their federal award contacts for assistance and guidance. Action taken in response to finding: The Department is reviewing and updating internal procedures to ensure all required subawards are reported timely and accurately in SAM.gov. While there have been some technical challenges with SAM.gov reporting, the Department is actively coordinating with U.S. Department of Agriculture contacts to resolve issues and ensure compliance and maintaining a record of each outreach attempt. Staff responsibilities and monitoring procedures are being strengthened to support accurate reporting. Name(s) of the contact person(s) responsible for corrective action: Julia Jou, Budget Director, Rob Curtin, Deputy Commissioner, Erica Gonzales, Associate Commissioner Data & Accountability, Rob Leshin, Director, Food and Nutrition Programs Joseph Valchuis, Audit Supervisor Planned completion date for corrective action plan: April 15, 2026

The Agency recognizes the importance of compliance with earmarking requirements during the effective award period and will continue to ensure that expenditures are aligned with statutory and regulatory requirements throughout the active life of federal awards, including in circumstances involving early termination.

The Governor's Office of Highway Safety (GOHS) acknowledges the audit finding regarding documentation and monitoring controls associated with federal grant matching requirements, earmarking allocations, and adherence to the federal period of performance. Corrective Actions Implemented: GOHS has strengthened its monitoring procedures to ensure that all grant expenditures are reviewed for compliance with federal matching requirements, earmarked funding allocations, and the approved period of performance prior to reimbursement approval. GOHS has improved documentation controls by implementing standardized documentation requirements to ensure supporting records clearly demonstrate compliance with federal matching percentages and earmarked funding restrictions. Grant files will include detailed tracking of match contributions and earmark allocations. Programmatic and financial staff will receive additional training on federal grant compliance requirements, including match eligibility, earmarked fund tracking, and the importance of ensuring expenditures occur within the authorized period of performance. A secondary review process will be implemented within the Finance Division to verify that expenditures charged to federal grants meet match requirements and fall within the grant's approved performance period before payment is processed. GOHS Management will conduct periodic internal reviews to verify adherence to federal grant requirements and to ensure that the corrective actions remain effective.

Condition: The Organization obtained a short term line of credit without formal approval from HUD from Park National Bank in 2024 with access to credit up to $15 million, which exceeds the limits in section 20b(iii) of the HUD agreement. Planned Corrective Action: On February 21, 2024, Change Healthcare / Optum sustained a cyber-attack and completely shut down claim’s submission processes for Knox Community Hospital. With over 3 weeks of not releasing insurance claims that amounted to over $40M, this impacted the cashflow greatly on the organization. The CFO at that time made the decision to seek a Line of Credit with Park National Bank for $15M to fund operations. Due to the urgency and short timeline, formal approval was not obtained from HUD. A detailed event log was maintained around the cyber-attack and provided to our Board and HUD representative. In the future, all regulatory agreements’ requirements will be reviewed by the CFO and in time there are new agreements or modifications made to existing agreements to ensure compliance with each agreement. HUD has since issued a letter approving KCH’s $15M Line of Credit. Contact person responsible for corrective action: Danielle O’Brien, CFO Anticipated Completion Date: 4/30/2026
